Chris Thomas says people want money in pockets
Improving the quality of life is high on the agenda of West Douglas MHK Chris Thomas.
He's seeking re-election in the new constituency of Central Douglas when Islanders go to the polls in September's general election.
Mr Thomas believes a key priority for the next government should be ensuring people have enough money in their pockets.
He says the morale of those in frontline services is low - and it's an issue that needs addressing:
Fundraiser for TT rider Maria Costello surpasses £220k
Motorsport legend is currently paralysed after breaking her back
Warmer than average May for Island
239 hours of sunshine recorded in the month
Manx BirdLife awarded funding for new warden
Over £28,000 provided by Dormant Asset Fund
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Expanded eligibility and increased funding for support schemes
